Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of performing well in its overall grade, this nursing home performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility was awarded high grades in the category of long-term care as well. As a result, we awarded it one of our most favorable scores in that category with a area of A. When nursing homes receive this type of score in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the facility is well-staffed with nurses and aids. One of the statistics we considered after nursing hours was vaccinations. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 96.77419 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a reliable method to minimize unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the elderly population. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Additionally, this facility also was awarded favorable short-term care scores in our assessment. Indeed, we awarded it one of our better grades in that category, with a grade of B. Our short-term care scores are critical for people seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing services. This means a broad scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. We weren't able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.5 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Turning to our last area, this facility was given a respectable nursing score. Although this isn't quite as strong as many of its other category grades, this is truly not a terrible score. In determining a facility's nursing rating, we weigh the number of hours nurses are with patients as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, our nursing ratings also factor in some quality-focused statistics. We like to look at the percent of residents who experienced pressure ulcers and major falls. These metrics are decent indicators of the quality of nursing care, since superior care can reduce these problems.
